Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'I' against official Lattice documentation to confirm industrial temperature rating specifications. Ensure the ordering part number matches the exact package variant required for your PCB footprint. Cross-reference the datasheet revision date to validate current manufacturing status and any potential design changes or obsolescence notices prior to final procurement decisions.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems requiring flexible digital crosspoint routing with moderate speed requirements. The 160 I/O configuration suits complex interface bridging tasks. Consider the 111 MHz limit for timing closure. Evaluate power consumption profiles against thermal constraints. Compare against other ispGDX variants if higher bandwidth or different pin counts are needed for the specific application topology.

Part Context

This device is part of the ispGDX family from Lattice Semiconductor, which focuses on low-cost, high-performance interfacing solutions. The family is characterized by its ability to handle high-speed serial and parallel data paths efficiently. These devices are typically used in infrastructure equipment where reliable signal switching and protocol handling are critical for system operation and data integrity.

Replacement Considerations

Check for direct substitutes within the ispGDX series that share the 208-pin BGA package and similar I/O counts. Verify compatibility with existing programming tools such as ispDOWNLOAD. Ensure that any replacement maintains the same voltage levels and timing characteristics required by the host system design.
